If I may, I'll assume you are using a Unix. I would just use IPC::Semaphore. At the risk of falling victim to hammer/nail syndrome, I could also point out that you could create an object of type Apache::Session::Lock::* and invoke the serialization methods thereof. See ::Sempahore, ::MySQL, etc. Cheers, jwb -- Report problems: http://perl.apache.org/bugs/ Mail list info: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/modperl.html List etiquette: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/email-etiquette.html
